| Great article!
Very well written, good job rf_engineer . I completely agree with you. BPL is just too slow to be a real competitor to cable or DSL. If Powell wants more competition, he should figure out how to encourage FTTH deployment. BPL is like forcing a square peg into a round hole. We just don't need to be pushing "broadband" data over a mediocre copper infrastructure that's even less suited for broadband than the existing "hacks" that we have now. -- \\ROB - a part of the SCB local network |

That's a big "IF". If, on the other hand, Powell really wants to entrench existing monopolists, then advocating a technology sure to fail would accomplish that.
